I need to seal the door of the Stumps SW223 Offset http://s123.photobucket.com/albums/o313/swinebuck/ . One of the disadvantages of this model is it is not insulated. I noticed allot of leakage around the door during my cook on Saturday. I thought if I sealed the door with the same type gasket you guys use on the clone insulated door. I might stop most of the leak. I talked to an appliance parts store and the high temp gasket is sold in 100' rolls. This is way more than I require. Does anyone know of someone who sells them is 15 or 20 foot rolls? Thanks for the help.
Thanks

How much is 100'? I might be interested in buying whatever you dont use, since I am going to need some myself. |

Hey Brain: Thanks for the tip. Two 7' lengths would work well for what I need. I knew this site could help.
Thanks
Mike

I found 1/2 braided fiberglass at a regular insulation store in 100 foot rolls. They cut off exactly what I needed. I think it was around 1.50 a foot. That way there is less joints. You can also get it from McMaster Carr. I ordered my 6ft hinge yesterday and it came in today. I love that place. John. |

Ace Hardware sells it off of rolls in the woodstove section. |

I had to buy 100' roll of insulation. The insulation company would not sell pieces. The roll cost $37.00. Not a bad price for 3/4" braded fiberglass. Now that I have 100' I will insulate everything. If I can find a space it will get filled. If anyone needs insulation cheap I will probably have some left over. I found a good deal on high temp cement which I posted but here is the link. http://www.northlineexpress.com/detail.asp?PRODUCT_ID=5RU-78&source=nextag&kw=5RU-78
Thanks
Mike
